Welcome to your confessional! You're free to make threads, but for now, this is a place where you can talk about the game and/or answer any questions from spectators! You can find your Decision Booth as well as the Cute Point Tracking thread in this forum too. Use those for their intended purposes only, please. Otherwise make this your home! This is the start of the game and you may begin to PM anyone else in your tribe. Just make sure to include ProductionBot on the PM! In addition, until the end of the first challenge, you may PM the Human Child

Hiya! I love being an Ermine! Now, just give me a moment to figure out what that actually is. All I know is that it looks incredibly cute

Indeed you are cute! Outside of cuteness, what are you bringing to the table for this game? How do you think you'll approach it?

Oh, huh. I'm not sure, I just try to be nice enough so that people don't wanna get me out, and not play too big so people don't see me as a threat right up till the end. Just like the Ermine, cute and small but deadly

Oh boy, a visitor from outer space? How very exciting! You must tell me all of your homeworld, and the other worlds you have discovered on your journey. Did you, perchance, encounter a small boy with blond hair?

Xoffy's Corner
Hello, and welcome to your very first of possibly many confessional questionnaires. This is where I, xoffy, pop into your confessional and ask all the burning questions that are specific to you, yes you [insert player name here]! Only the most quality content scientifically and mathematically calculated to get the maximum enjoyment from you, [insert player name here] and for us the spectators at home. So let's just dive in, shall we?
1) It's been a few hours since the game started and I hope you've had a chance to talk to everyone. Is there anybody in particular who sticks out? Who do you like best? Who are you indifferent about? Do you have anybody you could gladly do without?
2) Everyone is such cute animals, aren't they? I just want to respectfully and affectionately pat every avatar there is. But, why do you think the animal that you are is the cutest? Is there any animal who you thought was cuter that you didn't get? Does your choice affect your strategy at all?
3) Much of this game has already been spelled out for you in advance, isn't that neat? Is there any mechanic you're most looking forward to? Any you're worried about? Do you have any specific plan going forward to best adapt to the upcoming twists and mechanics?
4) Everyone comes into a game with different skills or hopes and goals. What are some of yours? What are you looking to achieve? What skills are you bringing to the table?
5) If you had to describe your gameplay style as a weather phenomenon or natural disaster, which would you be and why?
That's all the time we have for you tonight. Stay tuned 'til the next time we pop by, [insert player name here], we're wishing you the best of luck.

Thank you for these personalized questions xoffy! I'm very flattered you thought of these just for me. Now let me think how to answer these... 1) It's probably easiest if I start from the bottom, and that is definitely gecko, I haven't seen many of their messages but I don't really like the style, so I don't think we'll talk much. Then comes probably the Red Panda because the convo is a bit weird, but it's too early to really have a judgement on that. The rest is a bit difficult to rank, as I have only exchanged one or two messages with some, but I'd say the standouts are the Fennec Fox, Elephant Shrew and Pika, oh and Sand Cat. Hoping I can talk to them more today and get some alliances going there, although I'd prefer if I wasn't the one to suggest all of them. 2) I'm very happy with the Ermine! The sand cat is arguably a bit cuter, but I like the simple elegance of the Ermine, and the fearless ferocity that it hides behind it. I don't think I'll play the role of a predator, but it's nice to have that option. 3) I haven't really thought too much about it yet. The cuteness raffle I don't really mind since in my experience individual immunity rarely matters until the final stages of the game when it gets down to 6 or 5 players, so I will try to save as many points as I can for the last one. I like that searching for an idol is so straightforward because I suck at normal idol hunts. I'll probably not search too much, and if I do, then stealthily because an idol that other people know about can cause more harm than good. 4) Hmmm, what do I bring to the table... well, the most important part is just to be likeable, and I think I can be decent at that. Strategizing comes second, but I'm getting better at that too. 5) Oh no, creative questions! Uhm... I'll go with a soft snowfall, fitting to the Ermine. You won't notice the weight of the snowflakes on you until you are buried underneath.

I feel like the guy in moneyball, taking the statistical approach. Of course this barely matters since it's just small changes of numbers in the chances, and wether we win or loose doesn't really matter that much either, but I just can't stop myself.

Well, I don't have any formal alliance yet, but I think it's going well. I think the closest thing to that is with Elephant Shrew and Fennec Fox. And with Red Panda I guess. I haven't really talked much game with people yet, apart from the challenge. There will be time for that later. I'm fairly certain the first boot will be Gecko, if we loose the challenge, they seem to be the most inactive one.

Hmm, should I format my confessional somehow? It might be a good idea to do that, sort it by episodes or something so it's easier to read.

Xoffy's Corner
Hey there, we're back again much earlier this time than I'm sure you(or frankly even I) expected! Maybe we'll make this an every round thing, we might have the budget for that. Either way, we very much appreciate your previous answers to our first questionnaire [insert player name here] and we've spent the time since thinking up even more personalized questions that are only just for you. Let's just dive in here, shall we?
1) You all put quite a lot of work into that first challenge, good work! But do you think that anybody in particular's performance has had any effect on how they're viewed in the tribe? Or does this not even enter into how you think about the game?
2) Animal Pen has entered their first tribal council, that sucks. How do you see the vote shaping up in this round? How safe do you feel at this TC? Do you feel that this vote will reveal anything about alliance lines and voting blocs, or do you think this vote will be more of a unanimous thing?
3) There are many different ways to play survivor, what sort of player are you? Are you the kind who plans out rounds in advance or are you the sort that takes each round as they come and figure it out then, or a mix of the two? Would you consider yourself to be more strategic or more social or something else entirely?
4) Music is often a thing that people find relatable and has a lot of meaning, pick a song that either represents you as a person or might be representative of how you plan to play this game.
Just 4 questions this time, the amount will vary according to many variables including the position of the moon and stars in conjunction with the state of the game and the amount of sleep I've had that day. Good luck with all of your endeavors here, insert player name here, we'll catch you again soon!
